SGR Ep174 - A Champion Spirit | Tate Gunning

Tate Gunning grew up in a loving home with a strong family unit.
He was a star athlete in high school and accepted a baseball
scholarship to Arizona State University. It was not long before
Tate had a taste of the party life in college, which eventually led
to him being kicked off the baseball team and losing his
scholarship. What followed was a destructive and dark time for Tate
to walk through. For the next fifteen years his life spiraled
downhill into addiction. Finally, while living homeless, he
overdosed on heroin and nearly died—this was also the experience
that changed his life.

Today, Tate is 4 years clean and helps others find balance
and enjoyment in recovery. He entered his life's purpose with the
creation of his website, Inhouse Treatment.

About the Podcast

As long as I was high I didn't have to feel. Drugs took the pain away, and to be honest, I just liked being high. I thought I was cool. I even had a nickname, 'Cocaine Shane'. I'm a regular dude from the suburbs in Northern California. After 17 years of struggling with drugs and alcohol, for the first time in my life I took a stand for something. I didn't care what anyone would say. I didn't care what anyone would think. I went to rehab and got sober September 11th, 2013. Now I talk to people about drugs, alcohol, recovery, and more fun $hit. If I can do it, you can do it too. Check us out at www.ThatSoberGuy.com
